Part 6/7:
The internal chaos is hardly confined to script and director issues. Marvel staff changes, shifting creative visions, and behind-the-scenes disagreements have created a turbulent environment. It is increasingly clear that Marvel acknowledges the need for a significant overhaul but lacks clarity on how to restore its once-formidable dominance.
The franchise’s recent string of underwhelming releases—and the struggle to generate excitement comparable to pre-Endgame heights—highlight a franchise in need of strategic realignment. The nostalgic appeal of returning characters like Deadpool and Wolverine offers some hope; however, their success may do little to revive the broader MCU.
